Stu’s Secret: Ditch the Desk, Embrace Your Passion

Stu, the head of our undead household, knows all about leaving the mundane behind. “Why waste life at a desk when you can be wielding tools and creating something new every day?” he chuckles, wiping BBQ sauce off his cheek. Stu’s journey from regular dad to zombie innovator is all about diving headfirst into your passions, even if you’re not quite sure what you’re doing. His motto? “Grab your tools—life’s too short for boring jobs!” Use your passion like it’s your favorite wrench and twist your way into a life where every day is a new build, a new chance to mess things up and start again.

Gory-Ann: Discover Your Inner Artist—There’s No Wrong Way to Create

Gory-Ann, the ever-eccentric matriarch with a flair for the dramatic, teaches us to color outside the lines. “Who cares if the neighbors judge? If you love it, flaunt it!” she exclaims, adjusting her oddly shaped hat. Just like in art, life isn’t about getting it right; it’s about making it yours. Express yourself, especially if it means outshining the norm while you’re at it. Be bold, be messy, and let every new creative spark tell your story.

Blair’s Boldness: Challenge the Norm—Stand Out and Be Proud

Blair, our goth teen with a secret love for all things pop, rolls her eyes at conformity. “Being different isn’t just okay—it’s powerful,” she asserts, her voice barely louder than a whisper yet fierce. “Let your unique qualities show your way, and find strength in what others might see as weaknesses”. Her advice for surviving life? “Flip expectations and find your true path—it’s way more fun when you dare to take a walk on the dark side.”

Bram’s Curiosity: The World is Your Playground

Bram, the mischievous whiz kid of the family, never walks past a button without pushing it—literally. “If it’s weird, poke it! If it’s new, try it!” he giggles, setting off another one of his homemade gadgets. His zest for discovery makes every day an adventure. Curiosity didn’t kill the zombie—he was already dead. Life’s too short for repeats and reruns. Tinker with the unknown, play with what’s possible, and remember, every discovery begins with simply trying something new.
